A small travel company has contacted me for permission to use some of our Egypt travel photos in their brochure. The initial press run will be under 1000 copies, and they want to use 25 to 30 photos, all without identifiable people.

I'm looking for advice on what would be a reasonable price to sell these photos for. Obviously I would want to retain copyright on the photos.

I don't want to scare them away with a high price, as I'm pretty sure they're a small company that can't afford much, that's why they came to us to begin with. I tried looking at http://photographersindex.com/stockprice.htm , but that seems to be in a different league (min. run 10000 copies).

Any advice is appreciated.

Ian,
I'm not sure what price to ask but I'm sure I would want photo credits imprinted on each one, and at least 25 copies of each variety printed for a portfolio. I would go easy on the company much like you mentioned, you never know, it may open a lot of doors for you!
Good luck,
Scott
